No fairwell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye,
you were gone before we knew it
and only God knows why...

We miss you Sandy and will always hold you tightly in our hearts. We will always be grateful to you for the many happy memories you left with us. May you rest peacefully in the loving arms of the Father. We will never forget you.

I was incredibly shocked to hear of your passing and I guess I'm still having a hard time believing it. I know that you are back with Roy now and that gives some measure of comfort to all of us who loved you. May you rest in the arms of your savior, may you rest in peace.. No more sorrow, no more infirmities, just blessed release. I'm so glad that we mended our fences those many years ago Sandy. You will be missed, you will be thought of often... God speed my friend.. till we meet again.
